I’m researching about men, porn and relationships. Will you tell me what you prefer- your partner or porn? Is porn a habit or addiction for you? ---

My girlfriend doesn’t have closeups but my porn always burns my steak. In other words, prefer _for what_? ---

If your asking if I’d rather have sex with my wife or beat off to porn, how is that even a question? If you’re asking whether I’d rather look at porn or talk to my wife about putting cork flooring in the dining room, how is THAT even a question? ---

How about talking to your wife about putting porn-themed cork flooring in the dining room? That way, you can do both. 😉 Albeit it would probably be a very short conversation ---

I’ll take the real thing over pictures any day. Unfortunately the real thing is not always available but a choice between the two is a no-brainer. ---

It makes me very uncomfortable when I agree with something you’ve posted. I think we may be moving that whole Mayan Death Cycle stuff forward, and we really shouldn’t oughta do that. Kindly return to posting things with which I strongly disagree. Think of the children. 😃 ---

Porn’s an accessory for us both, either indivdually or together. But what we do together is always the main event. ---
